Busy Busy Busy

Sorry I have been so busy with Baseball Tournaments the last few weeks.  Summer is winding down and I have been busy applying for jobs.  I can't believe that it is taking so long...  Some good news though I had a job interview today and I think it went very well!  When I got home from my interview I checked my e-mail and a job I had sent my resume to had said they checked it and I am a good match and they are passing it up the chain!  Plus one of my favorite stores the Scrapbook Zone asked for my resume on Mon. I filled an application last week.  Hopefully something will pan out!!  I need all the prayers I can get on these!!  I hope to be crafting soon.

I think this was from Christmas Cheer Cart.

Same Cart.

I made this last Christmas and just don't remember what Cart.  I was borrowing a friends Cart.'s for awhile cause I did not have any yet.

Cuttlebug embossing folder and gel pens starlights.

I made this back in Dec.  The Cart. is Stretch your imagination!

Sweet Treats Cart.
Birthday card for my Nephew

Walk in My Garden Cart.
With a Cuttlebug embossing folder for background
I used the Stampin Up Chalks for the background also

Card made with pinwheel from Mother's Day Cartridge

Here is one I made using the same Paper Pups Cart. except I used it a little different I cut the hole for the opening the same size as the sentiment.  Then I adhered it to the inside and you can still see it on the out side!

I finished it and I used Paper Pups cart.  They have a circle feature and I thought this gave it the right touch.

This one I literally threw together.  The bird in the toullies is from a cuttlebug folder.  The card is on dark blue and the punch out's are from a friends SU punches.  Not quite finished with it yet.

Here is my Daughter's princess crown she wanted me to make for her birthday.  It is made from Once Upon a Princess cart.!!  She has a big head though cause it almost doesn't fit on the largest setting...

Here's one that I have not figured out what sentiment to stamp on yet.  I just love how it turned out though.  The purple half is from the SU Top Note Die cut in half.  The other side is a cream piece of card stock run through a cuttlebug and an irridesant white shimmer piece on top!

This was a cute gift bag that came from the cart Once Upon a Princess and cut on the fit to page option on the Expression Cricut.  My daughter bought it for her birthday!  She has my old original Cricut to use.  I gave it to her for her birthday and she set it up in her room and loves it!!

Here's a card I made for my daughter's 8th birthday.  I bought a kit a couple of years ago for birthdays it was 12x12 on a pad and had die cuts and such to go with it!!

I got paper pups cart with my expression and I try to make the sample project in the front of the booklet on all my carts and this is my rendition!

Made for one of my son's friends. He is on a summer baseball league and their uniforms were red and black! made with everyday paperdolls cart on my cricut!

This card I came up with on a whim.  It was my Brother-in-law's birthday and I had a top note die cut out and just went from there.  The glitter effect was from out lining the letter's and taking my finger and spreading it all over the die!!  The ribbon I had just gotten from my friend the day before.  The Happy Birthday came from Wild Cards Cart.  

This card was made with help from Wild Cards Cartridge! A friend of ours was in a very bad bicycling accident and I sent this to him and his family they got a kick out of it!

My Daughter's invitation's

The front of the card was done with Doodle Charms and the words are from Wild Card
The inside bowling Pin I got from my Yahoo group
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/cricutcutter/ from allison mentink a big thanks to her it is from George and basic shapes.  The bowling ball I created myself from George as well!  The invite words are from Wild Cards!!

Well it has been awhile since I have posted anything!  I have been working on my daughter's invitation's!  I made 14 of them!  She told me what she wanted on them and I made them!  I took pics so I will get those uploaded as well.!  Summer was here we had 95 degrees a couple of days and then we got 70's then some 80's and now we are overcast and a little chilly.  That is the North West for you!!  I am still applying for jobs and no bites yet not even a nibble.  Very disappointing but oh well I ger to spend time with the kids and hubby for now and I get to see my boys play ball!  That is a big plus and the other plus side is I get to do what I love and that is paper craft.  I was thinking of getting out the scrapbook and seeing where I left off but I am not quite that motivated yet. Card making is holding me for now and the Cricut 3-D cut outs I have also been playing with! 
Have a great day!!

Is it summer yet??

  Here it is July 2nd and still no sign of Summer...  It is misting and sprinkling here in the Northwest.  I have been up here for 17 years and this is the worst weather this time of year yet!  I wanted a few days of sun but it is not looking very good right now.  Maybe next week.  The only plus is the money I am saving on sunscreen this year!!  And considering the job situation right now this is a good thing.
  So both older boys are playing summer ball.  The oldest is on the High School summer League. He is one of the boys that is younger and so he isn't supposed to get a lot of playing time.  They have League and Non-League games.  He might get an inning or two every 2-3 games if they are ahead.  In Non-League games he might play more.  On Tues. he played 6 full innings and even started the game!!  We were so proud.  He did great.  He was so happy and every inning the coach put him in he was surprised!
  The middle son plays on a select team.  He is a great player and he mainly starts.  He is also one of the older kids on his team.  He also pitches.  This will be great for next year when he is eligible to play on the High School Legion Team.  They can play when they graduate from eighth grade and are going to be Freshmen the following Sept.
  I am very proud that they are so athletic.  They did not get it from me though it is all from my husband! Thanks for reading!
